S9 Ep195 - Free For F(all) - A Book Recommendation Episode - 11/8/23

This week we have a book recommendation episode. We hunker down for November and embrace fall. We call this our Free For F(all) episode because we each give you a recommendation in 5 categories to represent November : Autumn, Native American Heritage Month, Diwali, Day of the Dead/ All Soul's Day, and No-Shave November.
